Former UFC welterweight and lightweight contender, Nate Diaz has weighed in on the ongoing rivalry between former opponent, Conor McGregor and Artem Lobov – questioning if the latter will honor McGregor’s request and show up to a fight at SBG Concorde in Dublin.

Diaz, who twice fought Crumlin native, McGregor, with both matchups coming back in 2016. Handing McGregor his first promotional loss in an upset second round rear-naked choke win, Nate Diaz would then drop an immediate rematch to the Dubliner in August of that year, suffering a close, majority decision defeat. 

In recent days, reports have emerged detailing how The Ultimate Fighter alum, Lobov is set to bring legal proceedings against McGregor in regard to the inception of his Proper No. Twelve Irish whiskey brand, in the hope to secure 5% of profits earned from McGregor’s reported $600,000,000 sale last year.

Launching a hurl of expletives and insults in the direction of Lobov in a series of voice messages on his official Twitter account last night, McGregor also challenged the Russian-born featherweight to a fight at their SBG Concorde base

“This is a call out to Artem ‘the fanny, fairy pad’ Lobov,” Conor McGregor said in a voice message. “I’m challenging you to a fight tonight, 10:30 p.m. – I’ll meet you down at SBG Concorde, and we’ll fight for the whole lot – we’ll fight for the whole lot. Going through – having lawyers messaging me about defamation and all this suing and all. You’re a little fairy – you’re a little blouse, mate. I’ll see you at SBG Concorde tonight, 10:30 p.m. And I’ll fight you for the whole lot, yeah? Answer this f*cking call out, yeah, you little blouse.”

Appearing to react to McGregor’s tirade aimed at former teammate, Lobov, Diaz questioned if the UFC alum would be actually accepting a future fight with the Dubliner.

“So is Artem gonna show up to the big fight or what?” Nate Diaz tweeted

As for Diaz, the Stockton fan favorite officially entered free agency on Monday night earlier this week, with his exclusivity period with the UFC expiring. Diaz’s representative, Zach Rosenfield did, however, confirm his client’s interest in potentially securing a trilogy rubber match with McGregor sometime in the future.

Conor McGregor is currently being sued by Artem Lobov, and the Irish superstar was looking to fight him in the SBG Ireland gym.

Lobov is suing McGregor over Proper No. 12 Whiskey, a billion-dollar whiskey brand. Lobov is a former long-time training partner of McGregor who claimed he actually came up with the idea and did much of the work to get the Irish spirit off the ground.

According to Lobov:

“A few people know, but this was actually my idea. I was the person who came up with the idea to do a whiskey for Conor … I said to him before you even look any further, ‘here’s what I know about Irish whiskey.’ I told him about my presentation from college. I told him about the dominance of Irish whiskey and all of that.”

Artem Lobov then went to different alcohol sales contacts he had in the country and setup and introduction, Lobov continued:

“Once I got that information I went on and met all the different whiskey distilleries. I called some and met some in person. I did my research and put a beautiful deal together … Once the deal was ready, I went to Conor and I said, ‘Conor, I have the deal ready for you. This is going to be a billion-dollar deal, no messing here’ … I introduced Audie [Attar] and the rest of the Paradigm team to my deal and all the people I was already working with, and then we got going.

Artem Lobov was never given a cut of Conor McGregor’s Proper No. 12 Whiskey success which is now valued in the billions and therefore Lobov is suing his former training partner.

Upon hearing the news that he was being sued by Artem Lobov, Conor McGregor challenged his former friend to a fight in the SBG Ireland gym. In a now-deleted voice note on Twitter, McGregor said:

“This is a call-out to Artem Lobov. I am challenging you to a fight tonight, 10.30pm. I’ll meet you at SBG Concorde and we’ll fight for the whole lot. Having lawyers messaging me about defamation and suing and all … You’re a little blouse mate, I’ll see you at SBG Concorde tonight at 10.30pm and we’ll fight for the whole lot. Answer this f***ing call-out, you little blouse.” [Transcript courtesy Mirror]

McGregor later published a picture of him at the SBG Ireland gym.

According to The Mirror, McGregor could later be heard speaking with a fan who turned up to the gym in the hopes of watching a free fight, joking that they have “Artem in the boot” of their car.

Lobov and McGregor were side-by-side during the biggest moments of Conor McGregor’s career. The Russian-born athlete was next to McGregor during the Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Khabib Nurmagomedov fights in addition to being a cornerman when he won his first title in the UFC.
